Media in Bihar
Biharbandhu was the first Hindi newspaper published from Bihar. It was
started in 1872 by Madan Mohan Bhatta, a Maharashtrian Brahman settled in
Biharsharif.Hindi journalism in Bihar, and specially Patna, could make little
headway initially. It was mainly due to lack of respect for Hindi among the
people at large. Many Hindi journals took birth and after a lapse of time
vanished. Many journals were shelved even in the embryo. But once Hindi enlisted
the official support, it started making a dent into the remote areas in Bihar.
Hindi journalism also acquired wisdom and maturity and its longevity was
prolonged. Hindi was introduced in the law courts in Bihar in 1880.
Urdu journalism and poetry has a glorious past in Bihar. Many poets belong to Bihar such as Shaad Azimabadi, Kaif Azimabadi, Kalim Ajiz and many more. Shanurahman, a world famous radio announcer, is from Bihar. Many Urdu dailies such as Qomi Tanzim and Sahara publish from Bihar at this time. There is a monthly Urdu magazine called "VOICE OF BIHAR" - which is the first of its kind and becoming popular among the Urdu speaking people.
